It looks like a good, solid commercial site to me that looks after it's community - but with all the talk of donations I think a lot of people here think it's run by a geek in a garage on a lick and a prayer, blagging bandwidth wherever he can get it.....
Long may it prosper. |
sshhhhhhh!!!

I am back, it has been awhile.
I personally Hate Ads, I never view them, and I would never want subject
anyone to them, I do understand why you are using them.
So I came up with a solution for my tiny Website that is going no where
at the momment.
An Ads Page.
Where you can put all the ads and Organize them by Catogories.
I have yet to put anything into the page yet.
But I did put
"FireFox" and
"SpyBot Search and destroy"
Their Button Links into a Misc Page.
I really think some kind of Donation Page would be a good Idea.
Remember Donations are Voluntary.
With a 80,000+ membership to this forum,
Even $1 a month would greatly help this sites Expenses and even to
Expand the sites Hardware or other stuff,
Allot of you all help to maintain this site spending allot of your time
doing whatever has to be done.
I currenyly have $3 in my PayPal account and I don't know what to do with it.
Ads bog down my connection, being on a Dial-UP connection that is.
I would mine visting a Ads page once in a while.
I still think Voluntary Donations are the best idea.
How hard would it be to set it up. |
